No because it was an undeclared war.
The first US draft was during the US Civil War (1861-1865); the last US draft was during the Vietnam War (1961-1975).
During WWII and Vietnam. Yes, during WWII and the Vietnam War, but to be more general, the military draft is used whenever the U.S. does not have enough voluntary recruits (meaning, when there are not enough volunteers). So, it could be argued that the military draft is used to "force" people into the army to defend their country. It has not been employed since the early 1970's.

The draft was last used in the United States during the Vietnam War, with the final conscription occurring in 1973. After the end of the draft, the U.S. transitioned to an all-volunteer military force. Although the draft has not been reinstated since, the Selective Service System remains in place, requiring males to register for potential conscription in the event of a national emergency.

The draft used in Vietnam was called the Selective Service System. It was implemented to conscript eligible young men into the military, where they would be required to serve in the Vietnam War. The draft lottery was used to determine the order in which individuals would be called up for service.
During the Vietnam War, the chances of being drafted were determined by a draft lottery system. Men were assigned a number based on their birthdate, and those with lower numbers were more likely to be drafted. The draft lottery was used from 1969 to 1972, and during that time, approximately 1 in 10 eligible men were drafted.
Nuclear weapons were not used during the Vietnam war
I belive there were only three wars the draft was used for, the civil War, World War 2, and the Vietnam conflict. There might have also been a draft for WW1
